Following legacy packing conventions, `isArm` was defined just for
32-bit ARM instruction set. This is confusing to non packagers though,
because Aarch64 is an ARM instruction set.
The official ARM overview for ARMv8[1] is surprisingly not confusing,
given the overall state of affairs for ARM naming conventions, and
offers us a solution. It divides the nomenclature into three levels:
```
ISA: ARMv8 {-A, -R, -M}
/ \
Mode: Aarch32 Aarch64
| / \
Encoding: A64 A32 T32
```
At the top is the overall v8 instruction set archicture. Second are the
two modes, defined by bitwidth but differing in other semantics too, and
buttom are the encodings, (hopefully?) isomorphic if they encode the
same mode.
The 32 bit encodings are mostly backwards compatible with previous
non-Thumb and Thumb encodings, and if so we can pun the mode names to
instead mean "sets of compatable or isomorphic encodings", and then
voilà we have nice names for 32-bit and 64-bit arm instruction sets
which do not use the word ARM so as to not confused either laymen or
experienced ARM packages.

Adds a couple of useful NetBSD and OpenBSD derivations. Some of these
will be integrated into Nixpkgs later.
Noncomprehensive list:
- netbsd.getent
- netbsd.getconf
- netbsd.fts
- openbsd.mg
- netbsd.compat (can replace libbsd)
Since the script running is a failure condition, we should fail the
build properly, not leaving it up to the missing output to determine
that the build went wrong. This should partly address #38952 — nix
build will print out the build log on non-zero exits.
Also fix numberous bugs, such as:
- Not getting confused on more flags taking file arguments.
- Ensuring children reexport their children, but the original
binary/library doesn't.
- Not spawning children when it turns out we just dynamically link
under the threshold but our total number of inputs exceeeds it.
- Children were always named `libunnamed-*`, when that name was
supposed to be the last resort only.
ld-wrapper's own RPATH check hardcodes `.so`, but darwin uses `.dylib`
*and* (in practice due to lousy build systems) `.so`. We don't care
however because we never inject `--rpath` like that in practice on
Darwin. Hopefully someday we won't on linux either.
Pull request #38470 added support for running/building kernels without
modules. This got merged in 38e04bbf29 but
unfortunately while this works perfectly on kernels without modules it
also makes sure that *every* kernel gets no modules.
So all of our VM tests fail since that merge with something like this:
machine# loading module loop...
machine# modprobe: FATAL: Module loop not found in directory /lib/modules/4.14.33
machine# loading module vfat...
machine# modprobe: FATAL: Module vfat not found in directory /lib/modules/4.14.33
machine# loading module nls_cp437...
machine# modprobe: FATAL: Module nls_cp437 not found in directory /lib/modules/4.14.33
machine# loading module nls_iso8859-1...
machine# modprobe: FATAL: Module nls_iso8859-1 not found in directory /lib/modules/4.14.33
machine# loading module fuse...
machine# modprobe: FATAL: Module fuse not found in directory /lib/modules/4.14.33
machine# loading module dm_mod...
machine# modprobe: FATAL: Module dm_mod not found in directory /lib/modules/4.14.33
I shortly tested this against the "misc" VM test and the test is working
again.
In the long term (and I currently don't have time for this) it would be
better to also have a VM test which tests a kernel without modules.

This is necessary due to a e2fsprogs update
(e6114781b0fad5345a2430fac3587d618273bda2) that causes mke2fs to
enable a feature (metadata_csum) that depends on crc32c.

Setting the hash to null is a convenient way to bypass the hash check
while developing. It looks like the ability to do this was inadvertently
removed while adding vendor directory support.
This still checks that the user is explicitly setting the value but
allows null as a valid option.
This is to go to a reproducible image build.
Note without this options image are identical from the Docker point of
view but generated docker archives could have different hashes.
This is to improve image creation reproducibility. Since the nar
format doesn't support hard link, the tar stream of a layer can be
different if a dependency of a layer has been built locally or if it
has been fetched from a binary cache.
If the dependency has been build locally, it can contain hard links
which are encoded in the tar stream. If the dependency has been
fetched from a binary cache, the tar stream doesn't contain any hard
link. So even if the content is the same, tar streams are different.

Existing "mips64el" should be "mipsel".
This is just the barest minimum so that nixpkgs can recognize them as
systems - although required for building individual derivations onto
MIPS boards, it is not sufficient if you want to actually build nixos on
those targets
Previously, cargoUpdateHook was meaningful as it was used
in
[`cargo-fetch-deps`](19d3cf81d3/pkgs/build-support/rust/fetch-cargo-deps (L71)).
However, this entire file was removed in
5f8cf0048e. As far as I can
tell, nothing in the code is using it, but it is still
being passed around:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/search?q=cargoUpdateHook&type=Code&utf8=%E2%9C%93
There are, however, legitimate use cases for it. For example,
in some software, some dependencies are not locked in Cargo.toml
and this causes Cargo to try fetching another version of them.
This doesn't work well with vendoring crates.
This hook allows to inject patching or whatever necessary workarounds
in the crate vendoring process. I suppose that's what it was for
in there in the first place.
This patch restores this hook and makes it usable again.
Before the code would fail silently for zero values and with some output for
empties. We now currently handle both via defaulting value to zero and making
`let` return success error code when there's no syntax error.
A separate function for building Bazel-bazed packages. Internally it splits the
build into two phases, fetching and building.
Users are expected to provide `fetchArgs.sha256` -- checksum of fetched
dependencies. Local dependencies should be removed in `fetchArgs.preInstall`.
Overall `fetchArgs` and `buildArgs` can be used to add specific steps to fetch
and build.
`find -executable` finds everything with the executable bit set,
including directories. Thats not harmful in this scenario as `cp` won't
copy those directories, but it does result in a few warning messages.
I originally wrote this for packaging proprietary games in Vuizvui[1]
but I thought it would be generally useful as we have a fair amount of
proprietary software lurking around in nixpkgs, which are a bit tedious
to maintain, especially when the library dependencies change after an
update.
So this setup hook searches for all ELF executables and libraries in the
resulting output paths after install phase and uses patchelf to set the
RPATH and interpreter according to what dependencies are available
inside the builder.
For example consider something like this:
stdenv.mkDerivation {
...
nativeBuildInputs = [ autoPatchelfHook ];
buildInputs = [ mesa zlib ];
...
}
Whenever for example an executable requires mesa or zlib, the RPATH will
automatically be set to the lib dir of the corresponding dependency.
If the library dependency is required at runtime, an attribute called
runtimeDependencies can be used to list dependencies that are added to
all executables that are discovered unconditionally.
Beside this, it also makes initial packaging of proprietary software
easier, because one no longer has to manually figure out the
dependencies in the first place.

Closes: #34506
Among other things, this will allow *2nix tools to output plain data
while still being composable with the traditional
callPackage/.override interfaces.
Summary:
According to git-submodule manpage,
"git submodule status" prefixes the hash with a '-' if it is not
initialized, and other chars in other circumstances.
(this is consistent on the various git versions tested)
nix-prefetch-git runs "git submodule init" which does you'd think,
but apparently despite this earlier versions of git before 2.16
would still give the hash the '-' suffix.
In particular this is the behavior when using 2.15 and 2.14.1
from the nixos-17.09 and nixos-17.03 channels respectively.
The script then used awk to drop the first char of the first field
which does the wrong thing when there is no prefix emitted:
while there is a space character before the hash, this is not
part of the field and so we ended up eating the first character
of the hash.
To fix this in a way that also works with the previous behavior,
this commit instead uses awk to grab the hash field
and uses tr to delete any '-' chars should they be present.
This seems to work in my testing, and for example can now
successfully fetch the source for "nginxModules.brotli"
where previously it would generate an error:
fatal: '22564a95d9ab58865a096b8d9f7324ea5f2e03e' is not a commit and a branch 'fetchgit' cannot be created from it
(we dropped a '2' from the beginning of the hash)
We still ensure the old and new ones start, respectfully, with `a/` and
`b/`. Use with `stripLen` to ensure tha the old `a/` and `/b` are gone
if a new prefix is added.
cargo-vendor generates almost the right cargo config. Store it with the
vendored files and patch it on use.
This allows to re-use the generated config when using git dependencies.
- All deps go on the PATH
- CC and Bintools wrappers with their host != depender's host still get their
setup hooks run.
- Environment hooks get applied to all packages
This isn't so elegent, but eases the transition on a very significant
PR.
We now have the information to properly determine the role the
cc-wrapper dependency has, by taking advantage of `offset`. No longer
use the soon-to-be-deprecated crossConfig environment variable, the
temp hack used before this change.
Changes:
* doesn't handle root user separately
* doesn't chdir("/") which makes using it seamless
* only bind mounts, doesn't symlink (i.e. files)
Incidentally, fixes#33106.
It's about two times shorter than the previous version, and much
easier to read/follow through. It uses GLib quite heavily, along with
RAII (available in GCC/Clang).
It would be nice to be able to track Nix requests. It's not trustworthy,
but can be helpful for stats and routing in HTTP logs.
Since `fetchurl` is used so widely, we should "magically" get a UA on
`fetchzip`, `fetchFromGitHub`, and other related fetchers.
Since `fetchurl` is only used for fixed-output derivations, this should
cause no mass rebuild.
User-Agent example: curl/7.57.0 Nixpkgs/18.03
* Wrap LEN macro in parantheses
* Drop env_filter in favor of stateful environ_blacklist_filter,
use execvp instead of execvpe, don't explicitly use environ
* Add argument error logging wherever it makes sense
* Drop strjoin in favor of asprintf
* char* -> const char* where appropriate
* Handle stat errors
* Print user messages with fputs, not errorf
* Abstract away is_str_in (previously bind_blacklisted)
* Cleanup temporary directory on error
* Some minor syntactic and naming changes

Factor a bintools (i.e. binutils / cctools) wrapper out of cc-wrapper. While
only LD is wrapped, the setup hook defines environment variables on behalf of
other utilites.
They aren't meant to be critical (uncatchable) errors.

This commit adds the CentOS 7.4 base image from the CentOS mirror, for use with
building RPMs or evaluating Nix expressions in a CentOS image.
When CentOS 7.5 comes out, I will swap this URL to the permanently vaulted image.
This change adds granular, non-docker daemon docker image fetchers and
a docker image layer compositor to be used in conjunction with the
`docker2nix` utility provided by the `haskellPackages.hocker` package.
This change includes a hackage package version bump and updated sha256
for recent fixes released to `hocker` resulting from formulating this
patch.
On non-GNU (gcc) compilers, there is no "/lib/gcc/..."
so when this is eventually expanded this is empty
resulting in an incomplete "-idirafter " that
eats the next argument:
-idirafter -B/nix/store/wamjwwdvkmhbf4f2902nhw8jxxzv0hy3-clang-wrapper-4.0.1/bin/
Certain tools, e.g. compilers, are customarily prefixed with the name of
their target platform so that multiple builds can be used at once
without clobbering each other on the PATH. I was using identifiers named
`prefix` for this purpose, but that conflicts with the standard use of
`prefix` to mean the directory where something is installed. To avoid
conflict and confusion, I renamed those to `targetPrefix`.
This continues #23374, which always kept around both attributes, by
always including both propagated files: `propgated-native-build-inputs`
and `propagated-build-inputs`. `nativePkgs` and `crossPkgs` are still
defined as before, however, so this change should only barely
observable.
This is an incremental step to fully keeping the dependencies separate
in all cases.
After #31497 starter quoting all values, there arouse the need to left some
values evaluated.
`--set-default var value` expands to `export var=${var-value}`, where value is
not evaluated and literally assigned to var unless it is already set.
`--set-eval var value` expands to `export var=$(eval echo value)`, where value
is evaluated by `eval`.
